Please. Somewhere I have pictures of me standing outside the county clerk's office.

Isn't it N. Rotary Road? I'll tell you why I know if you confirm that it's north and not south.

Back in the BBS days, I used to give my address as 8900 NW 23rd in OKC, which is smack dab in the middle of Lake Overholser.

Actually we're both wrong, apparently Rotary Road has no direction indicator.

No, you are wrong and he is right. It's 48 N. Rotary Road.

I thought it was north -- at least, that's what was on our travel orders.

On 9/11, I was working (as a contractor) for the FAA. The same company I worked for (rhymes with "Schmockheed Schmartin) also (unfortunately) had employees working in the Pentagon that day. Our company ended up sending out several employees from here to go set up temporary networks and set up computers and stuff. I didn't end up going, but I had filled out all the travel orders and stuff. The reason the address stuck with me was, I've always been interested in phones and phone systems and "rotary" sounded like it should be the address of the phone company.

Because of where I work I can't really get into 9/11 conspiracy theories or anything, but I can tell you I personally know people who were standing outside and watched a plane hit the Pentagon. When people swear up and down it was a missile, I'm often tempted to give them a phone number or two of some of my old DC co-workers.

Speaking of phones, since you've been involved in the military, would you by any chance know the smallest area code in the U.S. by number of phone numbers? Hint: it's very small.

I remember once driving along Maryland Route 32, just because I happened to be out that way, and I saw an exit for a named street. I got off the freeway to look because I thought the plant my be located there, but it was just an ordinary road which went to a typical warehouse district.

I mentioned to an associate of mine who worked in the construction industry, that I had gotten off Maryland State Highway at exit 8, and he got it spot on, he said, "Oh yeah, Coca-Cola Drive."
